The given picture compares the layout of a classic American and Japanese office. It can be seen that there are a few similarities and many differences between the two.
In both layouts, there is room for one department manager and two-section managers and a few junior employees. However, in the American office, there are separate cabins for the department manager and section managers. There are also separate cubicles for the other junior employees whereas in the Japanese office the whole working is from one big hall. The employees in the Japanese office have to sit around tables headed by the section managers, and the section managers in turn are supervised by the department manager sitting behind them. In the American office, the windows are on both the east and the west walls whereas in the Japanese office the windows are towards the north. The major difference is that in the American office, there are two conference rooms, a room for storage and another room for
the printer and copier whereas in the Japanese office there is no such facility.
Overall, it is clear that the standard American and Japanese office represent the different styles of working of the Japanese and the Americans.
